New Life, New Task: I'll Be A Mom Then!!!

The morning light gently and happily shone in Eli's warm cottage.

Everyone felt like the world was rejoicing with them as they welcomed Little Han into the world.

After a few hours of rest, Azayn and Queen Tehila checked Eli and Little Han's condition.

The mother and son were peacefully sleeping in the birthing bed, while the father was also lying with his hands as a pillow, on the bedside.

It was such a warm family picture, as the sunshine gently lightened up their area.

The two women smiled warmly and with relief. They were about to go back outside so as to give the little family more time to rest.

However, Eli's sleepy eyes fluttered open and saw the two of them.

"Azayn, Her Highness.." Eli greeted them as she gently tried to sit from the bed.

Pain suddenly crept from her lower back, it made her lose her strength immediately.

"Oh no, Eli! Do not be so hasty in moving, your body has not yet recovered!" Azayn said in panic.

Leon, who immediately woke up the moment he felt Eli's rustle, looked at the two women. Greeting them with gratitude and respect, he immediately attended to Eli's request to sit up.

"It's good that you are attentive. This moment is the most crucial for young Eli, so you have to be consistent with your care!"

Queen Tehila couldn't be more proud of how her son was behaving. Although she felt happy, she still warned him sternly.

"Yes, Mother Queen." Leon replied obediently.

Azayn took a look at Eli's physical condition. After taking her pulse she explained the things she needed on her diet and the prohibited actions she must not take for a while.

"I pray that no complications would arise, but as for now, your condition is good. You can even finish recuperating after a month." She said with a smile.

Azayn then proceeded to look towards Little Han, she couldn't help but sigh in amazement.

Although Little Han was healthy, he was still a preterm baby. It means that his development inside the womb was not yet complete.

She saw Little Han, sleeping so peacefully in a crystal blue shell, adorably wrapped with the softest swaddle cloth.

The heavens had blessed them indeed!

What Little Han needed was exactly this type of magical item! What's more, it was a legendary item, the mermaid's cradle!

Mermaids are very sentimental people. The cradle of their offspring would never be given so casually on a stranger, especially a human! They would rather grind them to become a material to their jewelry and weapons than give them away for another person to use.

But Eli managed to get this item! Eli is really as mysterious as much as she is amazing!

"Ack..aaah.." Little Han let out a whimper.

He was so tiny, his eyes were still closed and he looked very vulnerable. His immature head moved up and down seemingly looking for something.

Azayn let out a smile and looked excitedly towards Eli, "It's time for you to give your son his first meal~~"

She also did not forget to give a meaningful and teasing look towards Leon.

Hearing Azayn's words and seeing the way she looked at him, Leon's body awkwardly jolted and his ears went red. He dared not to look at Eli at this moment.

"Pfft!" Queen Tehila couldn't help but laugh, however she still gave her son a way out and said, "Go and prepare the meal for Eli, she will need a lot of nourishment to feed Little Han too!"

His mother's order was like good news to his ears, he stood straight and robotically walked out of the room.

Eli looked troubled, as she saw that Azayn was about to let her carry Little Han to breastfeed. She couldn't help but look at Azayn's and Queen Tehila's 'blessed' chests. She couldn't help but let out a sigh.

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ "What's the matter?" Seeing her dejected expression, the two asked worriedly.

Eli looked pitifully on her not so blessed chest, with doubt in her eyes she uttered, "I think Little Han will be malnourished because of me…"

The two women froze, after a few seconds they let out a crisp series of laughter as they found Eli's concern hilarious!

"Hahahaha! You have woken up my weary body fully awake now Eli!" Azayn kept teasing her friend.

"Young Eli, your worries are unfounded… With the right nourishment, you will also be able to feed Little Han sufficiently…" Queen Tehila who was still laughing lightly gave Eli an assuring look.

"Right, right! So don't worry but hurry! Little Han is hungry!" Azayn said while gently transferring Little Han, who was already grumpy due to hunger, in Eli's warm embrace.

Eli sloppily assumed the breastfeeding position. Little Han instinctively got his milk from his mommy.

Soon, the frown on Little Han's face vanished without a trace, he continued to drink until he would be satisfied.

Since it was Eli's first time feeding a newborn, her form was still far from what is proper.

She could feel that her hand was already hurting from holding Little Han so stiffly. Also, she doesn't even know how to know when Little Han had enough.

Luckily, Queen Tehila and Azayn guided her step by step. Not long after, she started to get a hang of it, only then she found it as an enjoyable experience.

She now had the focus to observe Little Han's features.

He was cute and adorable, although his face generally looked like all other babies. She could hardly trace a resemblance yet from Elise's and Leon's features. Could it be because Little Han was still premature?ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

She looked at her baby, thinking deeply. But a thought suddenly sank into her mind and made her dejected.

"Little Han's hair, seems to be also black.." She uttered with a darkened face.

She had been praying daily that Little Han would inherit Leon's features so as to spare him from the dangers of possessing the Asani's characteristics. Because she would be assured that he will not be targeted.

"But regardless, I still love him as he is. I will protect him at all costs!" She announced, at the same time saying it to her heart.

"Uhn! But don't worry Eli, babies tend to really look like that at first. His features will be apparent soon enough. We cannot say anything this early." Queen Tehila encouraged Eli, fully understanding what she meant.

Eli gave a smile and nodded.

After feeding Baby Han, Azayn and Queen Tehila joined forces to clean her body this time. Eli was so embarrassed she had been red all over, profusely thanking the two of going out of their way to do this.

Azayn was considered the princess of the Silver Dew Elves, while Queen Tehila was a member of the Imperial Family. But these two acted like they weren't a distinguished person and took care of her wholeheartedly.

"Jeez, you have already thanked us enough! Just lie down and recuperate. Call us or Leon, if you could feel that Little Han wants milk, so we can help you get up." Azayn finally replied after ensuring that Eli was cleaned well.

Leon entered the room and announced, "Her room is ready."

He bent and gently picked up Eli with his strong body. Eli, who was now completely relaxed suddenly felt a huge wave of shyness all over her body.

Resting close to Leon's broad chest, her nose managed to catch a whiff of his scent. It was delicate, yet manly. Smell of a man who wields a sword made to protect, not to kill.

Leon on the other hand tried his best to shut his loud beating heart down. 'What's with my heart? What if Eli managed to hear this?'

He hasted his steps and immediately laid her with great care into her room. After assuring that she was comfortably resting on her bed, he immediately distanced himself and said,

"I-i will get Little Han too.." Then he immediately stormed off. His bright red ears were on the verge of emitting smoke.

Leon went back to the room after a few seconds, then awkwardly put Little Han on Eli's inner side of the bed.

Once again he stormed off and entered with a tray of nourishing food to feed Eli.

Two exchanged a weird look.

"I think I can feed myself.." Eli suggested.

"No, you need to recuperate." Leon replied uncomfortably.

"Just eat, don't care about anything else." He said while carefully scooping a spoonful of soup.

Leon and Eli could feel that their cheeks were heating up. They both prayed that the other wouldn't notice their nervousness.

Eli was about to let out another protest but a tiny grumble was heard on her stomach. She let out a chuckle of embarrassment and said, "I guess it really can't be helped."

She awkwardly drank the soup that was brought by Leon.

The two didn't know how, but they managed to finish the food on the tray.

"Thank you for the food.." Eli said meekly.

"Uhn, call me if anything," Leon carefully fixed the utensils and was about to stand to go out, when a flash of light appeared in the room.

"Ohohoho… My godson is looking so awesome in that cradle!!!" An arrogant voice sounded from the blinding light.

Soon, Zale appeared with his signature topless outfit. He flicked his hands and the cradle responded by floating near the guardians.

They all leaned forward and looked at the sleeping Little Han with adoration on their faces.

"Hmmm..hmmm this is quite an achievement for you, I must admit." Sylvain was the next one to appear. He addressed the words to Leon and Eli.

"Eli, congratulations!" Celeste said with a happy expression.

"Eli, did great!" Amihan said with a childish expression, immediately leaning close to Little Han.

"E---h sir Za..en sir Zaen.." Eli greeted with panic. Leon was still here. Why did the guardians show themselves like this?

"Do not bother, Eli.. He must know, because only by that, we will be recognized as godparents right?" Celeste brought out a book named parenting 101 and flipped on a page pertaining to godparents.

"Great guardians! Greetings!" Eli said in surprise, her brow twitching from the enthusiasm of the four.

Leon who was shocked out of his wits, also knelt with reverence and greeted ceremoniously.

"Greetings, Esteemed Guardians of Prasinos!"

"Don't bother, don't bother… we are just here to give our godchild his allowance!" Sylvain said nonchalantly.

He waved his hands and a big pouch containing countless colourful gems appeared on the bedside.

The impact made the gems casually roll in the ground.

Leon, although still composed with his cold blooded expression, uttered astoundingly, "Supreme grade mana stones!"
